But so far Brad Henry hasn't agreed to a single penny.
The more I look into this project, the less I like it. The reasons are fairly complex. Henry is smart not to oppose the project openly. His current strategy is really win-win. Either he the project just dies a quiet death, or the project is fully funded by the federal government.
